Nicki Swift’s social media team was busy photoshopping away David Bromstad’s tattoos, and trust us, the results are nothing short of jaw-dropping. The photo will surely have you doing a double take because his face, arms, and chest no longer have the art you are probably used to seeing on him. Without his many tattoos, the “My Lottery Dream Home” host has transformed into a completely different person. The edited bare skin is a stark contrast to the colors and designs that typically cover his body or the makeup he wears for his HGTV hosting gigs.
It’s been a minute since anyone’s seen Bromstad without any tattoos. Since appearing on television, he has always had some sort of ink, and we know this because he told Tattoo Co. he got his first tattoo after college. Even though he had plenty of ink, he initially kept his tattoos hidden. In 2014, HGTV shared a video of Bromstad where his forearm, face, and parts of his neck were visible. None of them, however, had the tattoos he sports today.
If you’ve followed the HGTV star for a while, you may have seen those throwback shots he’s shared of himself without the tattoos. In June 2017, he posted a photo from when he was 19 years old, showing him without his tattoos. Now, if you think he looks better or worse with tats — that’s for you to decide, but we have a feeling Bromstad is a fan of his tattoos and isn’t about to have a change of heart anytime soon.
